Famous quotes containing the word dance:

    We look at the dance to impart the sensation of living in an affirmation of life, to energize the spectator into keener awareness of the vigor, the mystery, the humor, the variety, and the wonder of life. This is the function of the American dance.
    Martha Graham (1894–1991)

    God be with the times when I
    Cared not a thraneen for what chanced
    So that I had the limbs to try
    Such a dance as there was danced—
    Love is like the lion’s tooth.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Pretty friendship ‘tis to rhyme
    Your friends to death before their time
    Moping melancholy mad:
    Come, pipe a tune to dance to, lad.”
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
